Can't remember things? Here are five science-backed ways to improve memory. We learn ways to improve memory recall, with simple lifestyle changes and tactics.
1. Sleep well
Just like how you can program your computer to back up data when it’s resting, our brains use the time in which we sleep, to consolidate and store memories. The US-based National Sleep Foundation advises getting between seven and nine hours of sleep every night for optimal brain function.
2. Exercise regularly
It comes up all the time – exercise is truly vital for how well the body functions. It’s not just important for your heart, mood, muscles, and mind, it’s also vital for memory retention.
3. Re-learn the information later
Known as the ‘spacing effect’ in psychology, the more you re-learn or remind yourself of information again and again, over a space of time, the better you will retain it.
4. Test yourself
Tests or examinations may be considered to be a way of discovering what you know or don’t know.
5. Put the information in your ‘memory palace’
Learn the ‘Method of Loci’. The method has been found to be more effective for remembering things, than straightforward repetition and memorization.
